An Athens woman was arrested recently after residents of Rose Hill Drive reported her walking from house to house and wandering the road in a “boisterous state.”

Latoya Tawanna Willingham, 31, 209 Poloma Trail, was charged with one count of pedestrian under the influence of alcohol or drugs, after a deputy found her walking along the road in an “apparently intoxicated state.”

In another incident, two sisters were arrested at their home last week after Deputy Gary Floyd was summoned to a family violence call. Heather Michelle Dalton, 21, and Latasha Lynn Dalton, 23, both of 1665 Jones Chapel Shiloh Road, Danielsville, were charged with one count each of battery FVA.

According to the incident report, the witness, the boyfriend of Latasha, stated that Latasha was trying to cook dinner when Heather cut the power off to the trailer. An argument then reportedly ensued in Heather’s bedroom, which turned physical, leaving visible signs of injury on both women. Deputy Floyd noted that officers had been called to the residence multiple times over the previous two days and that the two had been told to separate.
